There actually isn't lots of configuration in those fragments. > local.conf that's not a recommended setup to begin with: as said > elsewhere it should have precisely two definitions: distro and > machine, and nothing else. What kind of things are in those fragments? In our BSP layer there is some configuration we want even if our distro layer is not used (e.g., SSTATE_DIR). It also sets a default MACHINE that matches one from our BSPs. In the distro layer, it sets DISTRO. It also adds some extra, commented variables that our users may want to enable in their local.conf files, much like the examples in the local.conf.sample from meta-poky. Part of this is of course related to that we use repo to fetch the layers we need and thus we do not have the luxury of bitbake specific tools like kas and whisk that can add bitbake configuration in addition to the actual layers. On the other hand, our environment is very similar to the default experience with poky from a user's perspective. > Should they be consolidated in machine and distro definitions? > > Alex //Peter
